About the Book

Fully updated throughout, this fifth edition is essential reading for master's-level CIPD and non-CIPD students alike.

Balancing theoretical frameworks and practical guidance, Research Methods in Human Resource Management explains everything from defining a hypothesis and planning the research process through to reviewing literature and documents, collecting and analysing both qualitative and quantitative data. There is also guidance on how to write the research project with best practice sample literature reviews and write-ups included.

Fully updated throughout, this edition now includes expert discussion of how secondary data can be used in a research project as well as new material on ethics, sustainability and data collection in a hybrid world. This book also includes international examples and discussion of collecting data from different geographies. Mapped to the CIPD Advanced module, Business Research in People Practice, this is an invaluable textbook for all postgraduate HR students needing to complete a dissertation or research project. 'Review and Reflect' sections at the end of each chapter, case illustrations and activities help to consolidate learning and online resources include an Instructor's manual, PowerPoint slides and annotated weblinks.

Review :
"This book explores the research process from its beginnings until after the work has been completed in an easy-to-read, engaging, but always reliable way. The fifth edition of this authoritative book expands the range of methodologies that are addressed whilst continuing to be as reader-friendly as the previous editions were." "The books aligns with the CIPD Profession Map in the UK. It also provides considerable international focus, and is valuable for students at all university levels, as well as for HR management (HRM) and HR development (HRD) practitioners seeking to understand, conduct and apply HR research in organizational settings. I highly recommend it." "This fifth edition of Research Methods in Human Resource Management continues to be the 'go to' book for students of HRM, or HRM practitioners tasked to undertake a major research project in their organization. This new edition includes valuable guidance on the relationship between research and practice. The book is both a practical guide and a reminder of the value of undertaking rigorous research in professional settings." "This renowned book is an invaluable guide for anyone undertaking research in a wealth of contexts. Students and researchers benefit from a thorough discussion of their chosen methodologies across the depth and breadth of content with a precise focus on the HRM discipline. This is a super helpful research methods book." "For HR students serious about leading impactful research, this book is an indispensable guide. The authors masterfully blend proven methodologies in conducting research with critical contemporary issues like ethics, cultural sensitivity, AI and the evolving workplace - arming you with essential tools to tackle relevant HR challenges through enquiry and curiosity." "Valerie Anderson and Rita Fontinha have produced a very fine update of their research methods textbook in this fifth edition. I enjoyed the well-written chapters on each part of the research process as well as recent practical cases that will help every curious HR/management student tremendously. A wonderful teaching and learning asset!"
